Freebies!!

Everyone likes a freebie right? Well to show that its the season of goodwill I have teamed up with Sew Mama Sew for their great give away day (which lasts all week) and created this cute kids Fairy Tale Messenger Bag. It has a long handle to carry across body, an internal pocket to pop all those little essentials in, a magnetic stud fastening and best of all - your little one gets to colour it in!

The outer shell fabric and internal pocket has cute pictures that can be coloured in using fabric pens, the lining is creamy white cotton fabric.

The handle has trigger clasps so that it can be removed whilst your little one gets busy colouring in!

Eva couldn't wait to get started on hers!

This is the actual bag and pens that will be mailed to you if chosen as the winner!

To win one of these cute bags all you have to do is leave a comment stating what your little one likes to carry around with them. For Eva its her Disney Rabbit Comforter that she's had since the day she was born. Included with the bag will be a pack of fabric pens so the winner can get right to work as soon as their parcel arrives. Please note that the fabric pens will stain clothing so please protect surfaces and clothing. Adult supervision is advised. Also the bag will need to be pressed with a hot iron to set the colours.

This competition is open internationally, the winner will be chosen by the best comment. Competition opens December 9th and closes at midnight on the 13th of December GMT for UK entrants, 5pm 13th of December PST for international entrants. Winner will be announced in the comments box so please check back to see if its you!!

My grand daughter has early signs of hoarding lol. She literally carries a load of stuff up and down the stairs in the morning and night. If it's hers, she will have it on or near her! It's a running joke amongst us adults about all Amie's "things" :)

My daughter is almost two and she loooves to carry around her favorite stuffed animal, Mao Mao Kitty--with Mao Mao Kitty would be a pacifier just in case the one she refuses to take out of her mouth escapes some how, and a chunky bead necklace ("pretties" she calls them) annnnd she'd probably smuggle some fruit snacks or yogurt in there too. haha. :)

I have two little girls, aged 2 and 5. The question--in our case--ought to be, what WOULDN'T they carry around with them?

My two-year-old brings a handful of pebbles, plus a couple 'special rocks' to give away to those she encounters along her way. She also will bring a little toy and a mini-encyclopedia.

My five-year-old wants to be an artist when she grows up. She likes to bring markers, crayons, a pen, a pencil - whatever medium she's using at the time, and paper. She also brings a My Little Pony figurine (Rainbow Dash, usually). Sometimes a stuffed kitty.

I'd love for my girls to collaborate on this together. My younger daughter's name is - yes, literally; it's on her birth certificate - Picasso. So you see, it's fate.... :-)

Giveaway is amazing,so generous of you.Thank you for the chance to win it.My daughter would love it,she loves to color.If we do win it,she would be carrying pens,small notebooks and little Barbie mermaid dolls in it.

Is it wrong to say that I would actually like this bag for myself? I work with children and I know they would love decorating this bag for me and would be so proud to see me walking around the corridors with their artwork by my side.Inside I would keep all my necessary items: band-aids, tissues, pens, notebook, hand puppet, stickers, prizes and magic fairy dust!

my DD loves any stuffed animal. It most recently was Boo (the cutest dog), a cute deer from target, and just the other day she acquired a husky pup. She loves soft things. This bag is awesome! Thanks for the chance to win!

My granddaughter, Cora, is always carrying found objects and plastic animals that she then uses to create little scenes and dramas. This bag would be perfect for her since she loves crafts and stuffs bags.

Cuuute! My five year old would love this, and I haven't made her a new bag for starting school, so this might be the perfect solution. Lala has two bears called Hector and Horrace that she carries around most days, but if she is in full Mama mode (like today, she took with her to the mall - Baby+blanket, handbag with coin purse, old cell phone, and a couple of paper cocktail umbrellas - y'know typical Mama stuff (which all ended up in my big bag when she got tired of lugging it I might add). Thank you for the opportunity!

My little girl loves to carry around her dolls and teddies and all her other "treasures". I know she would love this bag but I think that my son would like it too to carry around all his adventure items and binoculars. Thanks for the chance to win this awesome prize.

Well, I thought that making my 2-year old a messenger bag would make him want to carry around his own stuff... But unfortunately he still loves to be carried around himself sometimes... Think that it'll change, currently I try to pack the bag for him (fruit, bottle of water, tiny books, tiny car) to keep him busy during longer trips, restaurant visits etc. But no way he'll carry the bag himself, lazy bum he is. ;)

My 4yo would be so psyched to get this! My littlest (who is 1) carries a cloth diaper (never used on the actual rear, mind you). They are his comfort item, and luckily can be exchanged whenever with clean ones, they are interchangeable. When he gets his hand on the cloth diaper, bam -- the thumb goes in the mouth. He's my third, so I'm more indulgent about such things and I think it's pretty cute. Thanks!!

My older daughter likes to carry around RJ, who was her Daddy's stuffed bear when he was little, and notebooks and pencils, a waterbottle, snacks, a field guide...she likes to carry a lot of stuff! My younger daughter likes to carry whichever small toy is her favorite at the moment.

What a lovely giveaway - thank you! My nephew loves to carry his lego blocks we got him for his birthday, and tattoo stickers where he ends up sticking them everywhere - even on his forehead! jphotopoulos(at)gmail(dot)com

That looks like such a great idea. We have a granddaughter who carries around a small monkey that belonged to her mom when she was little. It is missing 1 hand and half of a foot and has been repaired too many times to count.

What doesn't my child care around?! Lego, wooden toys, open markers, coins,jewels, tiny ripped up pieces of Kleenex ( I hope it's not used!) my "missing" bank cards, play food, real food ( so THaTS what I smell!) dollies and more bags just in case. All of this in a shopping bag- this small one you have made looks so much nicer! ;)

So adorable!!!! My son loves to carry around a basket full of superheroes everywhere he goes, and my daughter is more of a journal and art supplies person. Thanks for the great giveaway, and happy holidays!

My three year old has a constantly rotating selection of "stuff" in her backpack, which MUST be with her at all times. Like, if she leaves the table to go to the bathroom, first she must put on her backpack. There are always books in there (sometimes it's all books, but then I sneakily remove some, otherwise it's too heavy and great sadness results). And always a "baby" or two--currently Snowman and Gingerbread Man. And usually a few little toys and pieces of clothing. and then the rest of the space is jammed (and I do mean jammed; it's often hard to close, it's so full) with anything that catches her eye. So every so often I investigate it and frequently find things that we've been wondering where they disappeared to...

My girlies painstakingly pack their dollies and diaper bags before we go anywhere. To church, in a little change purse, it might be a polly pocket kitty, a fun eraser, a mini car and a kleenex. I'm forever checking whats in all the bags because they love to pack !

My 3 year old daughter loves to take her baby doll around with her. She has really started taking care of her within these past couple of months and she is always reminding me of the things her baby needs on top of what she needs!

My four year old granddaughter is fascinated with my sewing room and routinely takes scraps of fabric, spools of thread, and ribbons out of the room to carry around. (I keep the sharp stuff out of her reach!). I don't want to discourage her interest in sewing, so I don't object. But it would be great to give her a bag to keep it all in. Then I wouldn't have to go hunting in the cushions of the couch when I'm looking for a particular color of thread. Thanks for this delightful giveaway, and Merry Christmas to you!

This will be for my adorable and creative niece, Andrea. This is such a great prize! My niece carries a notebook where the pages don't have lines and her coloring pencils. She loves to draw and paint. My sister has framed her paintings and has her house is decorated with them. Andrea is really talented! I just love her! Happy Holidays!

My 6.5 year old is still attached to her blanket. We had to institute a "pink-pink doesn't leave the house" rule for fear of her misplacing it! My just 5 year old spent ages 2-4 with a lightening McQueen car in one hand and Mater in the other... Now, it's lego mini figures!

I love it. My seven year old likes to carry around her miniature version of a Mary Poppins' carpet bag. One of my four year old twins has four stuffed dogs named Charlie so she usually has at least one Charlie in her hand! My other four year old doesn't carry much although her hands are always stained with markers!
